Vermeer Unveils ML180 Mini Loader

Vermeer showcased the ML180 mini loader at The Utility Expo 2025. Featuring advanced electric-over-hydraulic controls, a suspended undercarriage, and air-ride suspension technology, the ML180 helps address operator fatigue and productivity challenges in traditional stand-on mini loaders.

The ML180’s control system provides fast travel speeds, precise motor control, and greater lift capacity on demand. The air-ride suspended chariot and floating suspension track system move freely over obstructions and rough terrain. The ML180 also generates low noise levels, helping improve communication and minimize noise disturbance on the job site.

The ML180 represents the next generation of Vermeer mini loaders, serving as a technology demonstration that showcases features and capabilities that may be integrated into future models, the company said. Vermeer is showcasing the unit at select trade shows to gather feedback and demonstrate its capabilities.
